Project 10073 Record — Peterson, Minnesota, January-March 1967

This document is a U.S. Air Force technical information questionnaire regarding an unidentified aerial phenomenon reported in Peterson, Minnesota, between January and March 1967. The report, completed on April 14, 1967, documents a sighting by a civilian witness. The witness reported observing a single object for a duration of 15 to 30 minutes. The report indicates that the observation was a ground visual sighting, and the witness noted that no photographs were taken and no physical evidence was recovered. The weather conditions at the time were described as dry. The witness also mentions a separate sighting involving their son, Craig, on March 9th at 6:45 P.M. The official conclusion recorded on the project record form is 'Other (Unreliable)'. The witness expressed difficulty in completing the questionnaire due to the complexity of the questions and the emotional impact of the experience, stating, 'I have never needed a psychiatrist. I am now 48. The boys I have, 2 children, everything was so. I hate to stay alone at night, especially since.' The document includes sketches and notes from the witness attempting to describe the object's appearance and movement, though much of the handwritten narrative is difficult to decipher.
